Thanks bro
Np calisthenics is very hard so its good to have a foundation first. The easiest techniques you can try out is L-sit, Muscle ups and Elbow Lever once you’re ready.

calisthenics isnt great over gym. if u rlly cant afford a gym membership then u can make some weights with like waterbottles. for exercises u can do like basics and add core exercises like hanging leg raises for abs.

Coming from someone who was obsessed with calisthenics , it isn't superior compared to gym in any aspect whatsoever. It did bring me more strength, probably the only upside to it. If you truly want to do it, then my advice for you is learn the basics, get good at them... Afterwards , when you have enough strength in exercises like pushups , dips , pullups etc you should start doing weighted calisthenics , which some call like a "better gym alternative" and you start training hypertrophy - based. Look into Ian Barseagles two-set method on it.
But when you get stronger! Low volume high intensity , which means not many reps in the exercises too. 6-8 reps id say is optimal and what built me when I did do cali...But because your a beginner do higher reps on every exercise. Oh and one more thing, when you get enough strength you can either do cali for building muscle or skill based like muscle ups ( i mean isn't really a skin you can learn it fast you just need enough strength) , variations of planche , front lever , handstands etc etc.....

If its for your physique like youre describing its just objectively inferior

If you want that same look you have to train a lot of shoulder and core and just go the gym. This is the more effective way to do it by far
